Nobody ran in the primaries is what I was saying, so don't throw that point back in my face, bro.

Nobody ran, although literally everyone was already aware how old he was. He already was stuttering and making slight mistake. What happened at he debate wasn't news to anyone. But had someone stood up then an took the chance we could have rallied then. But they didn't. Because although he made a couple mistakes his actions spoke for themselves.

Nobody seriously is trying to take his position now either. Because it's dumb. It's just a bunch of rich fucks and loud mouths screaming like it's gunna make it better.

Also, at this point, I did vote for Biden because of everything he's gotten done. I've been bashing him the whole time but I'll admit he's gotten shit done.

Nobody ran in the primaries

That's because the party elite told all the strong candidates to stay out and "wait their turn."

But now that the party elite are demanding change everyone with actual power wants to still follow Biden?

Like it was setup to avoid an actual primary.

So we're supposed to have faith and confidence in anyone who was too afraid to take on an old man in the primary? If someone really wanted change they would have ran against him damn the consequences
